Jeff Jones


Blind Narcissus by the late Jeffrey Catherine Jones
( 10th Jan. 1944 to 19th May 2011 )

Jones was one of the premier fantasy artists of the last 40 years and will be sadly missed. The above is one of my favourites of Jones' pieces, which I first saw in The Studio, the fantastic collection of work by Jones, Barry Windsor-Smith, Mike Kaluta and Berni Wrightson.

There are, understandably, a flood of tributes to this outstanding artist on the net, some of the best being by fellow bloggers

    I would also commend to everyone's attention this wonderful tribute by my friend Johnny Bacardi.

    Thanks for the tip, Richard! That really is a lovely, heart-felt tribute.
